So… do you want to dance and meet some new people? Would you like to connect to Charlottesville in a new way? Maybe you just want a quick hit of that vintage sound.

If any of the above are true, come dance with us in March! We’re going to be running a beginner-friendly lesson series that is a great way to start out in swing dancing or to reacquaint yourself with it if it’s been a little while. We are teaching 6-Count Swing (also called East Coast Swing) every Wednesday in March.

The series builds on itself and to get the most out of it, you should stay for the social dance that takes place right after which is included in the $30 per month cost.

After a month of Blues, we are gonna pick up the pace and learn Balboa! Balboa is a fun dance style focused on small steps, a close connection, spins, and faster tempos. The style favors connecting with your partner over larger movements. As such the dance is often more subtle and sometimes called a dancer’s dance.

The series builds on itself and to get the most out of it, you should stay for the social dance that takes place at 8:45pm which is included in the $30 per month cost. If you want to attend, please save yourself a spot by signing up below or come out to the first lesson of the month at 7pm downtown at the Front Porch.

About the routine: Set to Hal Singer’s “Rice and Red Beans” this routine was choreographed specifically for the Charlottesville dancers! Playing off the quirky saxophone solos, “Rice and Red Beans” will be a fun, high energy routine perfect for new and experienced solo dancers alike. Wear comfortable shoes that won’t scuff the floor, and get ready to work!

After the workshop, we’ll grab some food and beverage before we head back to the Dance Spot for our January Savoy Swing Dance!

Start the new year off right! Learn how to dance blues at Swing Cville!

One of the best ways to level up your dancing is to work on your solo movement. In December, SwingCville will be “Doin’ the Jive”! Come learn this classic routine with us in a three-week lesson series.

Since Swing Cville will be taking December 27th off for the holidays, the price for the month is $25 dollars. The weekly social dance (8:45-10pm) is included!
